Re: EMC/STG II homing problem

Hi George!

Yep I tested all inputs to the card with the scope.
Got good signals. I expected this as the diagnostic program
sees the switches and index fine.

I have roughed in pid an run some g-code programs today
with no problems.

It is not the end of the world if the homing function does not
work.... but it's not good!

I can drive the axes into a hard stop at low gains and restart
EMC for the time being to get a home.

Gotta find out what's wrong.
